Does the new version of the service or product require new external components?

Precisions

When the design of a service increases the technical requirements of the environments in which it is suitable to operate, whether on the server side or on user devices, this leads at best to a new dimensioning of these hardware components, at worst the need to replace them with a more powerful range. In any case, this generates a strong environmental footprint not to mention the fact that it excludes certain users who do not have the equipment.
